BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMP) OF THE WEEK

Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) discharged by residential, commercial, institutional and industrial users present a significant problem for wastewater collection and treatment systems. FOG can clog municipal sewer lines and lift stations, causing sanitary system overflows. FOG also has the potential to disrupt the effective operation of wastewater treatment plants.

BMP: Collect grease in a container and dispose of it in the garbage. Grease can also be mixed with an absorbent such as coffee grounds, used paper towels, or cat litter in a lidded container and placed in a trash receptacle.
